Overview
- Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic reports San Jose is open to trading Sherwood if they cannot agree on a deal in the coming days.
- The Sharks acquired Sherwood from Vancouver on Jan. 19 for two second-round picks, a cost now under renewed scrutiny.
- Sherwood is a pending unrestricted free agent with a $1.5 million cap hit and has 17 goals, 23 points, and 222 hits in 46 games.
- Interest has been reported or suggested from teams seeking middle-six help, including Buffalo, Tampa Bay, and Colorado.
- With March 6 approaching and three home games left this week, San Jose’s bubble standing could influence GM Mike Grier’s decision.
